freddy krueger on wilson, and the team high pressures. watch this next play. parsons, harrisburg, pennsylvania's finest, tackling dalvin cook, ripping the ball away, he gets the force fumble and recovery on the same play. defense with that intercept wilson, a 30-10 win. cowboys have dominated for a combined score of 70-10 in the first two games. coach brian dabolls, cruising for a bruising, down to the cardinals, 20-0 at half-time. they have been outscored 60-0 since the start of the season. i hope someone recorded coach's half-time speech because daniel jones and saquon barkley led four touchdown drives after that. they did get the ball back. jones drives in the field goal range, and graham gano, giants rally for the 31-28 win.

a bit of sad scary news for the giants. saquon barkley, potential injury moving forward. >> that was a good one, coy. >> thank you very much. >> thanks, buddy, as always. "cnn this morning," continues right now. breaking news, iran set to release five american prisoners at any moment. a jet is on stand by. >> $6 billion of frozen iranian counts for iran to use for humanitarian goods. donald trump's interview included a long list of deceptions, half truths and outright lie. >> i don't consider us to have much of a democracy right now. free speech is shot. these are banana republic indictments. >> i'm not anywhere near 80, by the way. i will be toward the end. >> they want to see those 40% wage increases, potentially

four-day workweeks, job security against the ev transition. >> the membership is fed up. it's been decades of falling behind. >> it's time. it's time. we're due. >> this is cnn breaking news. and we do start with that breaking news this morning. as things currently stand, iran is set to release five american prisoners. right now, a jet is waiting on the tarmac in qatar to bring them home. they have not gotten there yet. but under this deal, the u.s. has unfrozen $6 billion in iranian assets for iran to use for humanitarian purposes. >> we should note the biden administration has agreed to release five iranians detained here in the united states, notably two of them will stay here in the u.s. we have team coverage of all of these headlines this morning. cnn national security reporter, natasha has details. becky anderson is live on the tarmac at the doha international

airport. this is where the americans will land two ours after they take off from iran. what can you tell us in terms of time something. >> reporter: this is what we know at this point, that flight, the qatar jet has been on the ground in teheran now for about three hours or so. and a source familiar with the briefing, with the matter, says that that is the flight, that is the jet that these americans, these five wrongfully detained americans will board on a flight, which will come here at some point. they hope today. and they will be transferred into american hands. the american negotiators are here in qatar. qatar has played an absolutely crucial role in what has been a very complex and complicated deal, a swap of these prisoners, these american citizens in iran for five iranian prisoners in the u.s., two of which have

already said, according to reports that they want to stay in the u.s., two of whom, one expatriated home, and another to a third country. the other crucial part is $6 billion in what were frozen funds. iranian cash, sitting in a south korean bank account because of the u.s. sanctions. those sanctions have been waived. and according to a source familiar with what is going on, as we speak, confirming that that $6 billion worth of assets, iranian assets have now been dropped here, transferred here. electronically transferred here to doha, so that's as things stand at the moment, that jet still on the ground in qatar, expected to leave in the hours to come. the money, according to the source here involved with the matter says that the transfer of funds from south korea is

complete. >> becky, thank you. please stand by as we wait for that jet to take off, and natasha, i want to go to you and the reaction in washington. obviously there have been critics of this, there have been questions raised about the $6 billion. it is iranian money. but still, a number of republicans criticizing that. what are you hearing? >> yeah, poppy, so look. this is a deal that has been in the works for the last seven month, and in fact, the u.s. has been trying to negotiate with iranians for the release of these iranian americans for just over two years, obviously something that the administration has been working pretty hard to secure, making a key pillar of foreign policy objectives over the last several years. now, they see obviously a breakthrough about to happen, but the key caveat here is that $6 billion in funds that are going to be unfrozen, and allowed to be given to iran through a qatar bank account that will essentially monitor the disbursement of these funds so that iran can use them for

humanitarian reasons. that has prompted a lot of backlash by republicans as you mentioned in congress who are equating this payment, essentially as a ransom. they say that this is not the way to deal with the iranians and that giving them this money, which, again, is iranian money that has been frozen for the last several years, will only encourage them to take more americans hostage, to take more americans prisoner. now, the administration says, look, this is the best possible outcome here, the funds are only going to be used for humanitarian republicans, and they will be closely monitored by the u.s. treasury department and qatar. so not money that's going to be flowing directly into iranian coffers by any means, and not u.s. taxpayer money. these are iranian funds that are going to be unfrozen. >> we're going to continue to cover this throughout the course of the morning. christian amanpour will be with us on set. stay with us on that front.

hakeem jeffries was on the picket line, alongside members of the united auto workers union. >> what they're fighting for fundamentally is the american dream. we stand with the uaw as they fight for a fair contract, as they fight to benefit from the fruits of their labor. >> it's an unprecedented strike against the top u.s. auto makers, entering day four. negotiators are returning to the bargain table after failing to reach a resolution. the union is making ambitious demands for benefits they gave up when the company was facing bankruptcy during the great recession. all three auto makers are reporting record or near record profits. vanessa yurkevich live in wayne, michigan, with more. you have covered this so closely. you have talked to all key parties, what are the sticking points as we turn today four? >> reporter: the key sticking points are what we have seen

from the very beginning. we know they have tried to get closer, especially on the wages, cost of living. the two sides at this point, still negotiating, which is great news, but still far apart. stellantis is set to head back to the main bargaining table today. we saw ford and gm meet at the main bargaining table at uaw headquarters in detroit over the weekend. i want to bring in julie guyerman, we work at this facility, this plant right here. i want to know from you, day four, how are you feeling? how is the mood out here today? >> i think it's very louvrely. we're ready to stick it out as long as we need to. hoping that this is a short strike, but i have every confidence this the world that the uaw will get us a good contract. >> reporter: and negotiations are about compromise, we know the union has been asking for 40% in wage increases for the next four years. the auto makers have come in at

20, where's the compromise for you? do you feel like there is a compromise? >> i'd rather not say. >> reporter: do you want to see a compromise or are you sticking -- >> a compromise is good, but i would rather not say what the compromise is, i don't have a number. >> reporter: do you believe that the union will negotiate in terms of being able to compromise? do you feel like that's something that they're willing to do or are they sticking to their guns on these commands? >> i think they're willing to compromise. i think that's what it's all about. >> thank you so much, julie, appreciate your time. in the next couple of days, we are expecting acting labor secretary and senior white house adviser gene spurling to come to get involved in these negotiations so julie doesn't have to be on the picket line for that much longer. to point out, just across the border in canada, the union

unifor which represents 5,000 ford workers may go on strike tonight if they don't reach a deal by 11:59 p.m. that is of course complicating the strike happening on this side of the border here in the u.s. phil. >> it's a fascinating new dynamic to an already very complex set of dynamics. vanessa yurkevich, great reporting as always, thank you. poppy. also this morning, los angeles county is offering a $250,000 reward for any information as to the shooting of sheriff's deputy ryan clinkunbroomer, he was shot and killed inside his patrol car on saturday. officials say they believe he was potentially targeted and ambushed. he was wearing his uniform, he was inside his patrol car, and the authorities believe this could have been intentional targeting of him. what do we know this morning? >> reporter: the sheriff saying it could be just because he was

wearing his uniform, and now all available resources are being used to find the person or persons responsible for this. the sheriff vowing to find whoever did this. i want to sort of go over the time line of what happened here. you mentioned he was in a marked patrol car in uniform, on duty, he was just leaving the station, actually, on saturday night at around 6:00 p.m. in palmdale, 60 miles north of l.a., and he stopped at a red light. there is video obtained by cnn that shows a car driving next to his patrol car, and then speeding away. now, what authorities say is a vehicle of interest is a 2006 to 2012 dark gray toyota corolla, and they're asking for videos, for information, for anyone to take a look at this. they say it could be the missing puzzle piece. they're wanting information from the public, and they've offered a $250,000 reward. part of that reward coming from the city of palmdale. i want you to listen to what the

mayor here had to say. >> let me be crystal clear, this was an act of murder. this individual or individuals are spineless criminals and our community will join together to bring them to justice. >> reporter: and there was a procession this weekend to honor and remember his life. he was 30 years old. he had served with the department for eight years. this was a family calling. his father, his grandfather, all served the sheriff's department here in los angeles. he got engaged four days before he was shot. the sheriff just saying, look, he had so much left to live. of course they are upset. they are angry. and they're vowing for justice. this is a family, a department, and really a community that is grieving this loss, poppy. >> thinking of all of them, especially his family this morning. camila, thank you for the reporting. >> thank you. >> phil. former president trump who paved the way for roe v. wade to

be overturned says republicans, quote, speak very inarticulately about abortion. where the candidates stand, cnn is live on the campaign trail coming up. we are also following this breaking news, five americans set to be released from iran at any moment. we'll bring you the latest.

news this morning. we have just learned that the americans who are set to be released in iran are right now being transported to a qatar jet in teheran. that's what a source briefed on the situation tells cnn. we're going to take you live to the airport in a few moments. >> meantime, to politics and the u.s., former president trump over the weekend refuse to go take a clear stance on abortion restrictions while taking credit for the supreme court's decision to overturn roe v. wade. he interestingly criticized many of his fellow republicans in terms of how they've handled this issue, listen. >> desangttous is willing to support a five week and six week ban. i think what he did is a terrible mistake. i think the republicans speak

very inarticulately about this subject. other than certain parts of the country, you're not going to win on this issue. you will win on this issue when you come up with the right number of weeks. >> let's talk about that. chief national affairs correspondent, jeff zeleny joins us live on the campaign trail in des moines, iowa. the sun's not up. this came out in the interview yesterday morning. i wonder how people there in iowa, particularly, are responding to those comments from the president, former president. >> reporter: poppy, those comments certainly will be reverberating. the former president is coming to iowa later this week to dubuque county, heart of the catholic community, and also iowa governor, kim reynolds, has signed an exact same law that florida governor ron desantis did in florida, that six-week bill. that is being held up in a legal challenge here. this is the central issue here. abortion certainly has been something the former president has not wanted to engage in.

he believes it's a losing issue in his words for the party, as the midterm elections last year has showed. there's no question that there is a huge debate, a divide inside the republican party on this. that was made clear here over the weekend when his rival candidates expressed their views at a faith and freedom dinner for evangelical voters here in des moines. >> the debate is whether there should be a federal law. do you go and put this ban of 15 weeks and what does it do? it has everybody running from us. i'm going to fight on the side of life every chance i get. but i'm not going to demonize people in the process. >> i must tell you, i think we ought to ban abortion across america from that point that a baby can experience pain in the womb forward. it's a 15-week minimum ban. i believe it's an idea whose time has come. >> i think the states have done the better job thus far. congress has really struggled to make a meaningful impact over

the years. >> reporter: so the florida governor has tiptoed around this a bit. has not necessarily repeated his past support for signing that bill but has not stepped away from it either. there's no doubt, the former president's comments over the weekend make clear that abortion will be front and center in the four months of the iowa caucus campaign, and evangelical voters play a huge role in the republican caucus here. for now, the former president holds his grip on most evangelical voters, but the reaction from those comments, certainly will play a role into all of this as this keeps playing out in iowa. less than four months now until the iowa caucuses. >> jeff zeleny, thanks very much. let's bring to the table cnn political commentator, alyssa sarah sarah griffin, john avlon, and sarah lewis. i want to dig in on the abortion

piece and where that stands on the debate in a minute. i want to start when it comes to trump's interview, he has been indicted four times, tried to overturn an election, and we're having a policy debate, it's a good decision to weigh, and what republican voters do actually care about it, but he's up 60 points right now. >> it's crazy town. in that interview alone. kristen welker did a fantastic job. he incriminating himself, took responsibility for saying it's my idea -- >> can we play that sound real quick? >> the most senior lawyers in your own administration and on your campaign told you that after you'd lost more than 60 legal challenges that it was over. why did you ignore them and decide to listen to a new outside group? >> because i didn't respect them. >> were you calling the shots, though, mr. president, ultimately? >> as to whether or not i believed it was rigged, sure. it was my decision, but i

listened to some people. some people said that. >> i mean, it's insane that in the year of our lord, 2023, we're still debating this. he is, as you mentioned, phil, 10, 20, 40 points in iowa ahead of his gop rivals as a man who tried to overturn our democracy. and by the way, a lot of polls show him head-to-head with joe biden, if he loses what's to say he won't do it again and if he wins that's a pandora's box of problems for our country. >> and the defense efforts all of his attorneys were coming on the air after this indictment saying there's nothing wrong with following the advice of legal counsel. >> that's right. in fact, it's a pretty good defense, actually. but if you throw it away on national television. that is no longer available to you or at a minimum, you're setting yourself up for a very uncomfortable cross-examination in these criminal charges. >> they also say he would testify. >> that's right, he said he will testify, he will have, like i said, a very difficult cross-examination, he also sort of like ladled, you know, one

statement on top of another, saying that he might have pardoned himself. he might pardon himself in the future. he might pardon half the people who got convicted on january 6th. for those violations. he really sort of put front and center an issue that, believe me, donald trump does not want the conduct of his attacks on democracy to become a central issue in this next election, he's not going to win that debate. >> and yet that is the debate. that is the conversation that we should be having, and look, let's not forget. alyssa was in the trump white house, and she's one of dozens of senior staffers warning the american people and the republican party that this man represents a threat to the republic. the most recent is jenna ellis, former lawyer pushing these lies, now calling him a malignant arsonist. this is a disaster from a legal standpoint, and could represent a possible rupture point. >> it shows the tension you run

into when running for office and running against four indictments. he wants to be on air, and talking to the public, and doing interviews but runs into saying things that self-incriminate and put his legal cases backwards. >> that was the best capture of the entire scampaign season of the other candidates having policy debate, acting like the other stuff related to the former president who's leading the primary by 50 points like it doesn't exist, like it's 2012 all over again or early 2015, and trump coming out and doing what he did. talking about conspiracy theories related to the election, it's just the same person he's always been. >> and also realistic on the abortion issue, which at the of the day, iowa voters are going to say donald trump got me gorsuch, amy coney barrett and brett kavanaugh, he's pro life, he played the biggest role about getting roe overturned. the reason that people are losing by 40 points to donald trump is they did not litigate the case of his unfitness and the fact that he basically tried

to overthrow our rep republic. you're not breaking through on a policy matter. that's not fundamentally changing at this point. it's never historically happened, i should say. >> something that's not getting on the headlines this morning, but is really critical, john, and i think speaks to what is happening in this country politically? the attorney general of texas, ken paxton, gets acquitted by the senate after the republican-led house overwhelmingly votes to impeach him. i think it was 122-23 over all of hethese alleged wrong doings. what does that tell you? >> it tells you we have a break down of law and order and hyperpartisanship and fear of the maga wing of the party. there's an attempt to intimidate, as you said, it was an overwhelmingly republican texas house that voted to impeach him on a great deal of

evidence. and hyperpartisanship. >> and i want to draw the ex-can also with the romney interview yesterday where he recounted the partisan pressure, he felt he was the only republican trying to do his constitutional duty and not saying, no, we're going to put partisanship ahead of principle. this is endemic. it is in the water. >> the fact that he may in fact lose his ability to practice law is one of many many problems that ken paxton still faces. the fbi has been looking into him for years. you know, eight of his deputies called the fbi and said there's ethical problems in this office. you've got to do something. he's got a mountain of sleaze that led to the impeachment in the first place, that led to his near removal over the weekend and that are still going to sort of dog him. i don't know what his future in public life is like. but the reality is if republicans in texas or anywhere else are going to sort of cling

to this standard, i think he represents the first in a major state to get some of the, you know, something resembling some of the trump treatment, when people say if it's between my candidate and the law, i'm going to choose my candidate. >> mike allen had great reporting in axios that donald trump was actually playing in this race. he had actually talked about primarying primarying the senator. it may be that the legal system catches up to him before the political system does. >> one just takes longer than the other, and trump's ability to meddle in everything, whether it's impeachment or state races, didn't do great for them in the midterms. >> we'll be back next hour, thank you very much. happening soon, five americans are expected to be freed from iran. the u.s. is releasing five iranians from u.s. prison. new details coming in. we have christiane amanpour and david singer to go thrhrough al of it with us. stay with us.

(zipping zipper) ooh, queen likes. back to our breaking news this morning. five american prisoners in iran are now as we speak being transported to a jet in teheran that is according to a cnn source, and right now, that jet

is on stand by. we'll bring them from iran, to qatar, eventually to the united states. under this agreement, the u.s. has unfrozen $6 billion in iranian funds meant to only be used for humanitarian purposes. >> the u.s. is releasing five iranians from u.s. prison. two of them are apparently planning to stay in the u.s. joining us christiane amanpour and cnn political and national security analyst and "new york times" white house and national security correspondent david sanger. thank you so much. given the fact your interview with one of the individuals that is apparently on his way according to sources to the airport, it has been a little bit longer than we expected at this point, why do you think that is? >> well, you know, i think it's probably because of the bureaucracy, and you know, the exact timings of getting the wire transfers and all of that detail. i'm sure dave and others will have a lot more details about that, but imagine these people who have been there eight years, nearly, siamak namazi who i

interviewed in march, and others who are waiting, another minute delay is torture for them. if they are indeed on the way to the airport, that's fantastic, and they will get on to this qatar plan, leave iran ran airspace, get on the tarmac in doha, be transferred after a medical check to a u.s. government plane, and arrive here at a u.s. military base. we don't know exactly which one. we assume andrews, but we don't know. later, tonight, and their particular ordeal, this phase will be over, though there will be counseling, and getting acquainted with free life and family that's going to have to happen. >> let's listen to part of your interview with siamak namazi who in october would have been in the prison for eight years, and he wrote why have i been left to rot, his words. >> the longest, since the famous hostage crisis in '80.

three times longer. >> let's let everyone listen to this. >> i think the very fact that i have chosen to take this risk and appear on cnn from prison should just tell you how dire my situation has become by this point. i've been a hostage for seven and a half years now. that's six times the duration of the hostage crisis. i keep getting told that i'm going to be rescued. and deals fall apart or i get left abandoned. honestly the other hostages and i desperately need president biden to finally hear us out, to finally hear our cry for help and bring us home, and i suppose desperate times call for desperate measures, so this is a desperate measure. >> david, as christiane points

out last hour, why is it that the obama administration, the trump administration was not able to bring him home, and why now given the context with iran and this moment with u.s. iranian relations, is he coming home? >> it's a really fascinating question. so first the iranian economy is in really tough shape right now. the $6 billion means something to them, but if you believe the american account, and i have no reason to doubt it, it's going to be severely restricted. the money is actually going to sit in a bank in doha and it will only be administered for a series of humanitarian events, and, in fact, the u.s. has exceptions in its existing sanctions for humanitarian work. but assuming they stick with that, then the u.s. has not given up that much. the five of the five iranians were going out. two of them are in jail. one actually was about to be released anyway. and some are awaiting trial.

but i think that the bigger mystery out here is if you are the iranians and you were doing this, you would think you would do it as a confidence building measure to try to get on to something bigger, get the nuclear deal back in pieces, do something that would really open up money over time. >> you don't think there's been any movement towards a better relation? >> i have asked this question of american officials over the past couple of weeks. this has become clear this deal is going to come together. that isn't happening, and, in fact, over the weekend, the iranians announced that they were barring a third of the international atomic energy agency inspectors. the inspectors who know the iranian nuclear program the best. so if anything, they're kind of ramping up. >> we both want to ask the same thing. >> go ahead. >> mike mccall, really critical, a number of republicans really critical of this money and think it is a specious claim by the administration that it will only be used for humanitarian aid,

here he is and then i want your response. >> john kirby at the defense department the other day said, oh, no, there are conditions. they can only spend it where we told them to spend it on humanitarian efforts, really? >> they are so naive. we know money is fungible, and then the president of iran just came out and said i'm going to sf spend it however i want to, of course he is, and guess when it's going to go, terror proxy operations, building their nuclear offensive system for a nuclear war. >> you know, he can say all of that stuff, that's a very political statement. obviously the critics always use those kind of arguments, but you have to keep coming back to the facts, and the facts are that the trump administration entered the same kind of deals, and before that, you know, obama, and before that, you know, all the other administrations. this is iranian money. it's not u.s. taxpayer money. the u.s. treasury department has

eyes on the expenditures and the disbursements from this account in doha, so, look, you know, i'm not a fortune teller, i don't know how, but this has happened many many times, and it's important to say that every administration has had to face this dilemma since the islamic revolution when iran started the sort of, you know, practice of taking americans illegally, and many others from other western nations, by the way, many other countries have to go into these kinds of deals. until there's a grown up, joined up u.s. and western policy to iran, which there hasn't been since 1979. >> christiane, thank you very much, as we wait, again, for this plane to take off. david, thank you, appreciate it. ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy is in washington this week. we had meet with not only congressional lawmakers but others as they debate whether to send more aid to ukraine skpr. >> and three moderate house republicans have struck a

i want to update you on a story we brought you last hour. this just in, nine teenagers who had escaped from the pennsylvania juvenile detention center, they have been captured. we just heard from police in the area. we'll have a live report ahead. ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy is set to meet with lawmakers in washington this week. it marks his second trip to the united states since the start of russia's invasion. amid deep divisions, this time in congress about providing aid to ukraine. joining is pat ryan, a democrat from new york. you're on the relevant community. thank you for being here and on set with us as well. i want to start there because we are looking at the broader devolution of government spending process when it comes to capitol hill, but on this issue, specifically, speaker kevin mccarthy and his kind of top republican allies have said ukrainian funding will not be in any stopgap spending bill. what's the solution here?

>> i served in combat. when you were in the heat of the battle is the absolute worst time to turn your back on your allies, and yet that is what the far right that's hi jacked the republican party is doing. we are america. we are for freedom and democracy and against authoritarianism, and anything else, in my opinion, is just sort of political theater. we've got to come back together and hold that strong. and i think the vast majority of the american people certainly in my district agree with that. so we need leaders that will bring us back together on these fundamental issues. >> has the administration given you any sense of how much time they have left, how much money they have left before they absolutely have to have more? >> i think they have done a good job. the administration has done a great job across the board, i believe, on ukraine. when it comes to thinking ahead, planning ahead, and frankly recognizing some of the paralysis in congress right now. they feel that they're able to continue to provide the support that our ukrainian allies need,

but have been clear that we're getting into that window, particularly with the counter offensive right now, where we need to be doubling down in support, not showing this a ambivalence and hesitance. >> five americans are on their way from iran to be freed. the $6 billion that would be unfrozen and administration officials say would be used for humanitarian aid only, is equivalent of a ransom payment. what's your response to that? >> i think we have to look at the history of bad faith with the regime. i don't look at this with a democrat or republican lens: i look at it with the lens of my experience and service, my view of what's good for national security, and you saw the comments from the iranian president over the last week or two of we're going to use this money however we want. sure, we can say that we have some ability to have oversight over that, but i have real

concerns about this deal. i understand and i understand the human side of it and the tragedy, but i am concerned that we're rewarding bad behavior here, decades of bad behavior by the iranian regime, so i think t we have to look more closely at this. >> this is underway right now, is this something you will raise to the administration in terms of tracking that money and seeing where it goes? >> of course. i think in a bipartisan way, we have seen calls that especially in the face of what the president, the iranian president has said, we have to follow this very closely, and we have just seen them decade after decade break, we come in good faith as we should. we should always be working toward diplomacy. we kcome in good faith, they break that good faith, and we continue in the same patternment not only for this deal, which as you said, is largely being executed today, actually, but going forward, we need to tighten the ratchets and the oversight when it comes to the

iranian regime. i faced these guys directly in iran where they were killing fellow soldiers, i have very little tolerance for their behavior. >> another area of dispute with you and the administration is on immigration, a huge issue in new york state right now. you have called for months right now, not only for the declaration of the state of emergency but also an expansion of the temporary protected status to allow people to work. there has been no movement on either, at least that i have seen. why not? >> this is decades of failure of our political system. the closest we were to passing immigration reform, 2007, you saw the far right swoop in, blow up what would have been a very good deal for the american people, for my district, farmers, business owners, who are desperate for workers and for the people coming from, fleeing tremendous violence and strife who want to make a better living for their family. so we have to always see this as what it is a humanitarian crisis. keep in mind both the humanitarian aspects but the crisis aspects, that's why as

you said, i have called from the beginning for the biden administration to declare this a national emergency, to really mobilize the resources necessary, and then of course we have to get people to work. the fact that we can't pass bipartisan legislation in congress to allow people who want to come here to work when we desperately need workers throughout our economy shows how extreme the republicans have become on this issue. so we need to hold the biden administration accountable for doing a better job. we also need to hold mccarthy and the far right accountable for holding up the progress. >> can i ask you a big picture question, i remember when you kind of shocked the world a little bit with your special election win, that a lot of people, i think, in hindsight would point to that and say that was the first sign that there was a misunderstanding of the dynamicing heading into the midterm elections, in terms of where the electorate would be. do you think that's happening again when you look at the polling, kind of where president biden stands, particularly head to head with the former president.

or are there real concerns right now inside your party? >> the american people are smart. the american people understand what's happening. there are grave threats to our democracy, to our foundational values. the attack on reproductive freedom in the dobbs decision show that so viscerally, and it woke up everyone across the country from kansas to my race to recently elections we've seen. that trend of undercutting our democracy, trying to take away fundamental freedoms continues and has actually grown more extreme. we're seeing this in the republican presidential debate, where they're trying to out-maga each other further and further to the right when the american people actually want government to work and deliver thoughtful, practical results. that will play out in 2024. that's what's happening on the ground, we have to actually listen to that and show that we as democrats have always and will continue to stand and fight for freedom and for democracy, and if we do that, we will

absolutely win the day when it comes to 2024. >> congressman pat ryan, i appreciate it. i know you're the vice chair of the gun violence task forks you're trying to make a move on that in terms of the discharge petition. we definitely want to talk about that, but it's a busy morning for everyone. thank you for your time, sir. >> thanks for having me. negotiations set to resume today as auto workers continue this historic strike against all three of the big auto makers. they join several other unions on strike in america. we'll break down the broader trend here coming up. ...no kicking off the covers..... ...or blasting the air conditioning. because only t the tempur-pedic breeze is made with our one-of-a-kind cooling technolology - that pulls heat away from your body. so, the mattress f feels up to 10° cooler all night long. don't miss our biggest sale of the year, with savings up to $700 on select adjustable mattress sets, and experience the deep, undisturbed rest of tempur-pedic. learn more at tempurpedic.com mashed potato lovers. your day has come.

. all right. from auto workers to hollywood's writers andbaristas, thousands f workers have gone on strike this year, but even with the recent uptick in union activity, the numbers are still not what they once were. what are we seeing big picture with unions in america? our business reporter, nathaniel meyerson is here. i've been thinking a lot of the big picture on this resurgence of union power. it is resurging, but it is not where it was, right? >> to an extent, poppy. all right, why are we seeing all of these strikes right now? it's really a response to decades of wage stagnation, income inequality. so you look at from 1979 to

2021, worker productivity increased 65%, but wages didn't keep up, increasing just 17%. and we're also seeing an increase in strikes right now because of the tight labor market. workers feel like they have a lot of leverage right now, they look at the number of job openings, about 9 million job openings. and so workers feel like they have power. >> so where does this go from here? >> so, okay, unions still have not returned to their historical levels. 300,000 workers on strike, excludes the uaw strike, but that's still nowhere close to the number of strikes we used to see. you know, we're heading towards 2018 levels, but look, 1.5 million workers on strike in the '70s, and '80s. when reagan in 1981 fired the air traffic controllers union, that's really when we start to see the number of strikes decrease. union rates, 1950, 30% of

workers were unionized. >> in america? >> in america. >> 10% today. >> fascinating. steady decline. so more strikes right now, but not at the level that they were. and certainly not at the union rates we used to see. >> do we know if they're more effective now, though, in getting what they want? >> i think we'll wait to see this play out, uaw strike, that will have a long-term impact. >> nathaniel, thank you for the perspective. phil? more on our breaking news this morning. five americans are expected to be freed from iran and we'll head back to the u.s. cnn is live on the ground. we'll take you there, next. power e*trade's award-winnining trading app makes trading easier. with its customizable options s chain, easy-to-use tools and paper trading to help sharpen your skills, you can stay on top of the market from wherever you are. e*trade from morgan stanley. power e*trade's easy-to-use tools
